it means catching your email while it is still on your email account's server and redirecting it over to a google mail or yahoo email account instead of bringing it straight into your email client (Outlook/ Outlook Express)
You will have set up an email account on the web at some point and used a user name and password (because you would have needed to put these details into Outlook/ Outlook Express etc) eg. myusername@myinternetprovider.co.uk
Log onto the email section of your ISP provider (eg. www.myinternetprovider.co.uk) and see if within email account manager you have the option to forward email.
I would recommend google mail as you can then set this up to be brought in by your email client. Google mail has a good in built spam filter and so most, if not all, spam will be caught by google and you will never see it. Just remember to check google every now and again though to train' the spam filter iust in case it classes some of your contacts as spam
hope this helps but please come back if you need any more info
Get a google email account
set up googlemail to come in via outlook/ outlook express
